[Carcinoembryonic antigen in genital infections caused by HPV].
The immunohistochemical search for the carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA) was positive in 28.14 per cent of the cases of plane cervical condylomata, in 25 per cent of the cases of infections of the vulva by HPV, and in up to 40 per cent of the cases of cervical or vulvar lesions. These data are in accordance with those reported in the literature, even if the number of cases studied is too limited to enable us to make a significant comparison. As a result, the CEA might prove to be a useful marker for a more accurate biological and chemical classification of genital lesions by HPV.
